Bug Description
*Below added by Jonathan Thomas*
Stable Release Update (SRU) infos:
-Impact: Anybody who tries to configure the file watcher (or twitter) plasmoid via the "configure" button on the front of the plasmoid will recieve a crash next time they mouse over or click on the plasmoid after configuration.
-Addressed by: This bug has been addressed by adding a Qt-copy patch set for release in Qt 4.4.4, which properly clears focus, preventing the crash
-Testcase: Install kdebase-workspace and kdeplasma-addons. Add the file watcher plasmoid to the desktop. Configure the plasmoid by clicking the configure button in the middle of the currently-blank plasmoid and select a file for it to watch. Once you press ok on the settings dialog, mouse over or click the plasmoid, and plasma should crash.
-Patch/regression potential: The patch is extremely small, set for release with Qt 4.4.4, and it included in KDE's Qt-copy, making the regression potential for this very small. In my testing I have not noticed regressions.

I find that it crashes when I:
-Click the configure button in the middle of the plasmoid to configure the file being watched
-Mouseing back over the plasmoid makes it crash consistently.
